My eye doctor certainly thinks that's a contributing factor. His recommendation (for me) was that after every hour (or 55 minutes) of PC work, I should spend five minutes looking at things at distance (buildings, trees, etc). It's probably frowned upon by my employers (as I don't have a window office), but it's helped reduce my eye strain quite a bit.

Too bad for them. Your eyes are more important.

I agree. Which is why I'm not overly concerned with what they think about the subject. ;) My supervisor seemed content with "doctor's recommendation" once when I mentioned it to him.
